Abstract
Prior to 2018, the Acoustical Society of America (ASA) did little to support the Center for Hearing and Communication’s International Noise Awareness Day (INAD). Task Force 1 (TF1) members of the five-year ASA Strategic Plan determined that ASA must make a greater effort to support the INAD campaign to help raise public awareness of noise to meet our own strategic goals. For 2018, TF1 members organized and promoted activities that would not only increase noise awareness but would also encourage the public to interact with the ASA. These activities included taking sound level measurements using a mobile app, reading a Proceedings of the Meetings on Acoustics paper, watching a movie, and taking part in a live YouTube discussion with expert panelists. The success of these activities is measured in increased downloads, website traffic, followers, and subscribers. To continue ASA’s involvement with future INADs once the strategic plan ends, organizing was moved to the Technical Committee on Noise. This presentation will end with a summary of ASA INAD 2019, set to take place on Wednesday, 24 April 2019, as well as an update on future INAD plans.Prior to 2018, the Acoustical Society of America (ASA) did little to support the Center for Hearing and Communication’s International Noise Awareness Day (INAD).
